NowPublic editor nearly killed by act of God

Jordan,  thanks for getting this story out so quickly. We are very glad you had the presence of mind to record your story.

We hear your friend Deborah pulled you to safety just microseconds before you might have been crushed had she not intervened. Many thanks Deborah saving Jordan's life! 

Recalled the Wordsworth poem, Ode Upon Intimations of Immortality..."Our birth is but a sleep and a forgetting".

Glad you are still amongst us! 

Amen, gonzo. Amen.

Glad you're okay Jordan, with your luck fortunate today, perhaps you should buy some lottery tickets, I know I would.

 Pretty scary stuff. 

... when Maple trees attack!

The real victims here are the car owner and a squirrell, who lost his
or her apartment, cunningly built in a hollow carved by dry-rot... For
those non-Canadians out there, the maple is the national tree. Basically, Kensington Ave suffers from an excess of civic pride.

Deb and I were across the street, but the branch was big enough that its outer leaves landed at our very feet. The car owner was so cool about the whole bizarre situation, asking if everyone was okay before calling his insurance folks. The guy I interviewed was quite shaken, as he had literally defied death before our very eyes...

(Thanks, Barry; I didn't get a lottery ticket, but I did stop by LLBO for two cans of Tiger Beer, that Singaporean liquid gold)

Tiz good to know you is still alive & kicking Jordan.

The things you will do for a Headline !!! .... lol

Tiz just as well` it was Not an English Oak ! ... they never miss. 

Or the Nigerian Iroko, Carlos ... well J, like I always say, you're quite some guy! Perhaps it was that carefully cultivated dishevilled look ... someone up there trying to scare you into a hair-cut, huh? I'll buy you two more cans any time, just promise you'll take the train or something. Glad you're in one piece my friend ... we all like you better that way!
